Aesculapian Club

Founded in 1902 by Townsend W. Thorndike, Henry I. Bowditch, Francis W. Palfrey, William C. Quinby, and Samuel Robinson during their fourth year at HMS. In the early period of the Aesculapian Club there existed a strong sentiment in favor of its serving a purely social purpose, and quickly the members decided that life was too short to be wasted entirely on the art of medicine and the club added a number of purely social pursuits to its endeavors, most notably the Second Year Show, which began in 1907.
